Yes, that's me. I am small enough to eat and in fact, you've probably eaten donuts bigger than me. But please don't eat me. My name is Melissa, but since I've found there are rather a lot of Melissa's in the world, most of the time I go by Lissy. I'm an (aspiring) author and I've always loved to write.

And I say aspiring in parantheses because I was once told by someone very dear to my heart that I was an author, because he heard once from somewhere a quote that went to this extent "If you wake up in the morning and you want to sing more than anything, then you are a singer." He told me, if you wake up in the morning and want to be an author and a writer more than anything, which I know you do, then you are one to me.

And so all that being said,
Hi.

Welcome, Lissy! I hope the forums help you journey to a point where you never have to explain why you call yourself an author. (Actually, I wish that for all of us.) Good luck!

I wish that for everyone here too. Writing is tough, but if you love it, that's enough to stick through it. Having other people who love the same thing as you do helps too.

And thanks for the welcome.

Could you post a picture? I've never seen anyone smaller than a donut.

Lol

I'm not literally smaller than a donut, but I only weigh about a hundred pounds. It's a saying I picked up from my friend's dad who's our choir director. He always says, "We need to get to work people or I'll eat you. Remember, I've eaten donuts bigger than you."

Another shot of tequila and I would have believed it. :)

Well

You can drink

I'll drive? It's only slightly illegal for me to drink and I wouldn't fair well in prision.

I thought all Winconsinites started taking beer in their lunch boxes in Kindergarten.

No, don't you know we wait until first grade? *winks*

I've never had any beer - my parents would throw a fit

I have had some wine though - communion but still

No, no, no, no, no

I'm Lutheran

And there is a literay defination of communion: any time characters eat or drink together, usually showing a bond or a trust

Like if we were eating together in a book and I stabbed you, it would make me stabbing you all that more vicious because it's this time of trust

</random facts Lissy knows>

Please to meet you to :D

Soon as I figure out how to break in really (because you know new places you're there and then you're also broken in or no?) then this party will be started

Wasn't offended. Just stating the truth

I'm not sure about her myself. I think in reality she is likely very calculating and smart as hell. Nobody that I know of has ever garnered as much publicity over nothing as she has that I'm aware of. So while she may appear like a skank I think much of it is bullshit. Just my opinion. You can't buy the attention she gets and she appears to not work for it. Anyway, I didn't mean to vomit all that out, I'm just saying there might be more at work than meets the eye.

Well, I would dare say that anyone is in between two or more figurative lines at any given point

I call it decisions

Now Chocolate or Vanilla?

And she may do the work - but if you're that smart, smarts should be what you work to have shine through - not stupidity
